My journey through life and the lessons I learn to help me grow spiritually.

Sane Friends

Did any of you read this article? It studied a bunch of spider monkeys, Brits, or some other group to come up with its statistics. What they found was that divorce was the least with couples when the woman was at least 5 years younger than the guy. Maybe I shouldn't write those twenty somethings off so fast. 15-20 years younger and the marriage will probably signed in blood.

The funny thing is that it doesn't work in reverse. If the woman is 5 or more years older than the man then they are 3 times as likely to divorce. Sorry ladies. Those cougar traits may work for sex, but not for a long term relationship.

The usual answer came up for preventing the wandering eye. More sex. So remember that. If you want to keep a person have sex 1...2...5 times a day and they'll just be too freaking tired to find anyone else.

Wow I'm surprised this entry brought out so many comments. I was actually surprised that an age difference played a positive role in marriage. I also agree with Cameron that values and chemistry would be more of the overriding bonding fact.

Most of your commenters are young women in their 20s and 30s. My problem is that in my 50s, older men look...well, OLD! and not attractive to me at all. It's been a big problem for me, finding men who don't remind me of my dad or an uncle at this age.
